Purpose: To evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on the microtensile bond
strength (μTBS) of novel CAD/CAM restorative materials to self-adhesive resin cement …

Statement of problem Because zirconia is a glass-free material, alternative surface
treatments such as airborne-particle abrasion or silica coating should be used for long-term …

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of luting cement type and thickness on the stress
distribution within all‐ceramic crowns using finite element analysis. Materials and Methods …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: A strong and durable bond between a metal framework and a
resin-based luting agent is desired. Metal primers have been shown to be very effective on …

OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the marginal misfit and microleakage of cement-retained
implant-supported crown copings. METHODS: Single crown structures were constructed …

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the vertical misfit and microleakage of laser-
sintered and vacuum-cast cement-retained implant-supported frameworks. METHODS …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Although titanium presents attractive physical and mechanical
properties, there is a need for improving the bond at the titanium/luting cement interface for …

Purpose: To compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of two cements to two Y-TZP ceramics
subjected to different surface treatments. Materials and Methods: Zirconia specimens were …

Objectives. This study aimed to evaluate the vertical discrepancy of implant-supported crown
structures constructed with vacuum-casting and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) …

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of surface treatments on the shear bond strength (SBS) of a
resin cement to commercially pure titanium (CP Ti). Materials and Methods: Two hundred …
